This is why this thread is an impossible task because I've picked my top 5 and didn't include Foals and Arctic Monkeys! I also love Sigur Ros and so on...

Haha yeah, I was ruminating on my five for a good 20 minutes or so. I'll look back on it in a few days time and another band will cross my mind that I think should be on my top five. Absolute nightmare!

However, ask me again in a week and I will give you a different list. What I listen to depends on my mood, though it is mostly somewhere on the "depressing" spectrum (except, perhaps, the last choice)!
